Could be better

Overall Score

I haven't had many opportunities to try out this lens due to poor seeing, but my first impression has been disappointing. I was hoping to increase the magnification of my eyepieces without reducing the eye relief or significantly sacrificing image quality. I was almost at the limit before I could achieve focus and the image quality of my eyepiece was noticeably reduced. Maybe it will improve with more favourable seeing.Review by John Smith(Posted on 6/10/2017)

Excellent

Overall Score

This was a great product and I would recommend getting it if you want more magnification. Someone mentioned that this was bad and made the images blurry, and this would be true if you are using on a telescope that had a low theoretical magnification. So just make sure your telescope is big enough to handle the magnification and definitely purchase this!Review by Ben(Posted on 6/10/2017)

It's a Barlow Lens :-)

Overall Score

I've got a far from perfect condition 2nd hand Saxon 70mmx900mm on EQ I picked up from a garage sale for $30! It's my first scope, had it for a few months now. The Barlow works great, taking my scope to it's highest useful magnification. Have used it for viewing the moon, Saturn and NGC4755.

For those like reviewer Andrew Simpson who rated it 1 star, either your product is faulty or you are doing something wrong. When using the Barlow you have to shorten the focal length of the eye piece considerably using the focuser knob in order to get a focused image.Review by Clinton Hunter(Posted on 6/10/2017)
